ABSTRACT
Motivation plays a crucial role in influencing the worker’s behaviors and also getting the best out of
them, largely relies on organization’s system of motivation. Non-monetary motivation performs a vital
role in motivating experience, competent, dedicated, committed, and hardworking employees which
actually lead to increase in their performance. Main objective of the present study was to examine the
impact of non-monetary motivation on employees’ performance in some selected commercial Banks
within Maiduguri Metropolis, Borno State, Nigeria. The study covers recognition on dedication, work
autonomy on productivity and appreciation on punctuality of employees in the commercial banks as
indicators for non-monetary motivation and employee’s performances. It covers five (5) Commercial
Banks in Maiduguri Metropolis which were conveniently selected. Chronologically it only covers the
period of ten (10) years from (2015 to 2020). The population of the study comprises one hundred and
seventy two (172) employees of the five (5) Commercial Banks (Fidelity Bank Plc, FCMB Plc, FBN Plc,
GT Bank plc and Zenith Bank Plc,) in Maiduguri Metropolis, Borno State Nigeria. Survey method was
employed to gather the data through structured questionnaire and interview. Generated data were
analyzed with the aid of simple percentage and chi square test of goodness was used manually to test the
research hypothesis. The study reveals that recognition has significant impact on punctuality of employee
in the study area. Work autonomy has significant impact on productivity and also appreciation has
significant impact on employee’s dedication to duties and responsibilities in the selected Commercial
Banks in study area. Management of the commercial banks should give more emphasizes to employee’s
autonomy, appreciation and recognition which lead to increase in the performance of employees.

INTRODUCTION
Ability to motivate and retain competent, experience, dedicated, and hardworking employees as well as
keeping them highly satisfied has become very essential matter to commercial banks in today’s
competitive banking environment. Motivation plays a crucial role in influencing the worker’s behaviors
and also getting the best out of them largely relies on an organization’s system of motivation (Maina
2017). Non-monetary motivation plays a vital role in motivating competent and experience employees
which actually lead to increase in their performance. In Nigerian banking sector, numerous rewards
packages are provided to committed and dedicated employees such rewards as recognizing the employees
at work, provision of employees’ autonomy over their jobs, rewarding employees based on achievement
over their task and appreciation which center on shown gratitude to employee for their action (Sarvadi,
2010). Maina (2017) opines that profit sharing, promotion and performance bonus has a positive and
significant effect on employee retention in some selected commercial banks. Non-monetary motivation is
an essential instrument use in stimulating employees to work effectively and efficiently. Thus, it is
important to note that non-monetary motivation exists in order to motivate employees to work towards
achieving predetermined goals. Employee recognition is all about acknowledging the hard work and

accomplishment of the individuals and teams within the organization setup. According to Okwudili
(2020) employee recognition is a form of non-financial reward and it could be in form of social
recognition and praise for job well-done. Similarly, lotta (2012) posit that non-financial reward are
indeed away of motivating the banks employee for greater performance and retention. He further stated
that, recognition is all about creating an emotional connection with employees and the organization will
supporting the work the employee do and staying authentic to organization values. Banks use reward
system to emphasize on which parameters their employees should exert the extra effort on their jobs. He
further stated that banks rewarded employees for many reasons, for instance to attract and retain by
offering a financial compensation package that is result oriented in a business competitive environment
(Svennson, 2011). Most Employees want their Autonomy over Jobs, because it provides them with the
rights and privileges to participate in decision making processes. Employees want to operate without
being closely supervised or monitored. A feeling of autonomy could result from the freedom of employee
which is considered best in a particular situation, in jobs that are highly structured and controlled by
management, it is difficult to create task that lead to a feeling of autonomy over job (McClelland, 1961).
Employee recognition is all about acknowledging the hard work and accomplishment of the individuals
and teams within the organization setup. Employee recognition is a form of non-financial reward and it
could be in form of social recognition and praise for job well-done. ( Okwudili, 2015) Similarly, non-
financial reward are indeed a way of motivating the banks employee for greater performance and
retention. He further stated that, recognition is all about creating an emotional connection with employees
and the organization will supporting the work the employee do and staying authentic to organization
values (lotta, 2012). ). For rewards to be effective, they have to be seen as fair. This means there has to be
openness with respect to information about how the reward system operates and how employees will be
rewarded. Employees should also be involved in designing the reward system and its administration
(Jenkins, 2008). Appreciation means showing gratitude to an employee for their action or job well done.
Such rewards help employees to gauge their performance and know whether they are doing good or bad
(Sarvidi, 2010). Similarly, Dewhurst (2010) assert that appreciation is one of the non-financial rewards
that motivates employees for contributing their best efforts to generate innovative ideas that lead better
business functionality and further improvise organization performance. Similarly, lotta (2012) posit that
non-financial reward are indeed away of motivating the banks employee for greater performance and
retention. He further stated that, recognition is all about creating an emotional connection with employees
and the organization will supporting the work the employee do and staying authentic to organization
values. Jenson (2002) sees non-monetary rewards as a tool that motivates employee to perform far better
than expectation in the organization because the value of such reward does not erode easily.
RESEARCH GAP
Non-monetary motivation is an essential instrument for keeping committed, competent, skilled and
experienced employees in the organization, especially in commercial banks. It has been observed that the
selected Commercial banks in Maiduguri Metropolis have made effort to improve the motivation of their
employees at all levels of the organization. However, such efforts have not yielded the desired outcomes.

Similarly, it has been observed that non-monetary rewards is also an effective method of stimulating
employees, nowadays most of the Commercial Banks gives emphasis on monetary reward than non-
monetary reward aspect of the reward system, although every employees motive and desire differs
(Awolusi, 2013). Though many research works have been carried out on motivation, reward system and
employee retention, like Adeyemi (2013) assessed the monetary and non-monetary reward system and
found that pay, performance bonus, recognition and praise are tools for motivating employees in order to
discharged their duties effectively and efficiently. Ali (2008) examined the impact of intrinsic rewards
(recognition, learning opportunities, challenging work and career advancement, and extrinsic rewards,
stock option and performance bonus on employee’s performance and study found out that each factor
within both intrinsic and extrinsic rewards has a highly significant impact which affects employee’s
performance. However, none of these studies looked at the effect of non-monetary reward system on
employee performance in Commercial Banks in Maiduguri Metropolis, Borno State, Nigeria. And
specifically, studies on motivation and employees of bank are not sufficient in Maiduguri. The present
study was designed to fill the existing gab by examining the impact of non-monetary motivation on
employee’s performance in commercial banks in Maiduguri metropolis Borno state Nigeria.

ten (10) years from (2015 to 2020).
LITERATURE REVIEW
Dewhurst (2010) assesses that rewards is one of the important elements to motivate employees for
contributing their best efforts to the organization about innovations, ideas that lead to better business
functionality and further improvise organization performance both financially and non-financially.
Monetary rewards will impact the employee satisfaction which in turn led to employee retention. Every
organization’s reward system should focus on these major areas; compensation, benefits, recognition
and appreciation (Sarvadi, 2010). Benefit Such as car loans, medical cover, club membership, ample
office space, parking slots and company cars are ways of rewarding employees and employees do note the
types of benefit that their organization offers. Recognition and appreciation are another integral
component of a winning strategic reward system. Recognition is to acknowledge someone before their
peers for desired behavior or even for accomplishments achieved, actions taken or having a positive
attitude. Appreciation on the other hand centers on showing gratitude to an employee for his or her action
(Sarvadi, 2010). The full impact of reward on employee satisfaction can better be appreciated when
viewed from the angle of total rewards. Thompson (2002 cited by Armstrong, 2009). “The reward system
consists of all organization components - people, process, rules and decision making activities involved in
the allocation of compensation and benefits to employees in exchange for their contribution to the
organization” (Puwanenthiren, 2011). Bratton and Gold (2017) defined rewards as “all the cash, non-cash
and psychological payments provided by an organization in return for their contribution”. Work rewards

indicate the benefits workers receive from their workplace and are considered the determinants of job
commitment and satisfaction (Malhotra, Budhwar and Prowse, 2007). Gross and Friedman (2004) view
rewards to include compensation (consisting of base pay, short and long term incentives), benefits (health
issues, work/ life, and other benefits), and careers (training and development, career progression). Many
writers agree that rewards can be broken down into two broad types - intrinsic and extrinsic (Mottos
1985, Mahoney and Lederer, 2006, Hatice, 2012). Intrinsic rewards are derived from ‘’the content of the
task itself and include such factors as interesting and challenging work, self-direction and responsibility,
variety, creativity, opportunities to use one’s skills and abilities and sufficient feedback regarding the
effectiveness of one’s efforts. Extrinsic rewards on the other hand comprise promotions, private office
space and the social climate. Other examples include competitive salaries, pay raises, merit bonuses and
time-off’’ (Hatice, 2012). Research has shown that employees derive satisfaction from the work they do
in terms of accomplishing set targets, taking up challenging jobs, taking responsibility and working to
enhance personal and professional growth. Svennson (2011) Banks use reward system to emphasize on
which parameters their employees should exert the extra effort on their jobs. He further stated that banks
rewarded employees for many reasons, for instance to attract and retain by offering a financial
compensation package that is result oriented in a business competitive environment. Samuel (2009) notes
that the main purpose of retention is to prevent the loss of competent employees from leaving the
organization as this could have adverse effect on productivity and profitability. Long-term rewards are
awarded to employees who have been performing well. Such an employee will become loyal to his or her
organization and it reduces employee turnover. Long term rewards include being made partner, or cash
benefits that mature after many years of service or at retirement. These rewards are very strategic for
retaining the best human resources (Yokoyama, 20102.1.6) the term, “extrinsic motivation” is the
attainment of a separate outcome from the performance of an activity. Extrinsic motivation encourages
staff to complete their task in order to receive the reward. In other words, reward motivates people to get
rewards (Ryan and Deci 2012). Ejumudo (2014), the debate as to whether money motivates is still on-
going. There is however the contention that money can take on varying degrees of importance because it
has the potential of serving sundry needs. The study concludes that ensuring sustained high levels of
employee satisfaction through competitive non-monetary reward system is a way of achieving
organizational goals and objectives. (Rowley, 2011). Employee recognition is all about acknowledging
the hard work and accomplishment of the individuals and teams within the organization setup. ( Okwudili
2015) employee recognition is a form of non-financial reward and it could be in form of social
recognition and praise for job well-done. In the same vein, Rowley, (2011) it is imperative for
organization to recognize employees and provide them with the authority to execute such responsibilities.
In the same light, vecchi (2011) stated that recognition does not only make the employee feel valued but
also gives him a sense of belonging that arouses his inner feeling of satisfaction that does not only make
the employee to perform at his best but also make him to be deeply loyal to the organization. Also,
Armstrong (2011) asserts that non-financial recognition schemes are generally highly regarded in terms of
their ability to enhance motivation and job satisfaction. (Sarvidi, 2010). Similarly, Dewhurst (2010) assert
that appreciation is one of the non-financial rewards that motivates employees for contributing their best

efforts to generate innovative ideas that lead better business functionality and further improvise
organization performance. However, Wilson (2003) stated that the only way employees will fulfill the
employees dream is to share in their dream through putting more commitment, dedication, in so doing,
the management of the organization will appreciate their efforts toward provision of gift, thanks for job
well-done and other non-monetary forms of rewards. He further asserts that non-monetary reward is the
mechanism that makes this happens. In the same vein, merchant (2007) posit that non-monetary reward
generally awarded for a job well done and is often something that the employee contrived for.
Appreciation comes from management to employees who perform wonderfully will motivates the
employees to put more effort in his work. Similarly, appreciation is the key components of intrinsic
motivation and psychological force that impels employees to perform based on an aspect of nature that is
expressed under certain condition, as human being are social animal always expects appreciation from
their superior for executing task which will boost their morale. Autonomy is the degree to which a job
provides an employee with the discretion and independence to schedule their work and determine how it
is to be done (Robert and candy, 2004) they further assert that higher levels of autonomy on the job have
been shown to increase job satisfaction, motivation to perform the job. In traditional organization, only
those employees at higher levels had autonomy. However, new organizational structures, such as flatter
organizations, have resulted in increased autonomy at lower levels. According Robertson (2015) when
employees are given the freedom associated with autonomy and job satisfaction rises. He also noted that
this increased level of job satisfaction in employee’s stems from feeling of greater responsibility for the
quality of their works autonomy has also been shown to increased motivation and happiness, along with
decreasing employees, turnover. Therefore, commercial banks emphasis the important of autonomy to
their employees, because how much freedom employees have while working in the bank as this serve as
non-monetary rewards. Similarly, Pratheepkant (2011), examined the reward system and its impact on
employee motivation. The study was carried out in Srilanka using Pearson correlation coefficients. The
findings revealed that employees who get recognized tend to have higher esteem, more confidence, more
willingness to take on new challenges and more eagerness to be innovative in his place of work. Apeyusi
(2012), carried out a study on the impact of reward system on corporate performance, the study was
conducted in Ghana. The data obtained was analyzed by used of simple percentage and multiple
regressions. The findings revealed that there was a positive relationship between reward and employees
performance. Furthermore, Jehanzed and Aamir (2012), conducted an empirical study that examined the
impact of rewards and motivation on job satisfaction in Saudi Arabia. The data generated were analyzed
using chi square and logistic regression. The findings revealed that (1) rewards have positive significant
on motivation (2) motivation is positively related to the job satisfaction (3) reward have a positive
significant effect on job satisfaction. Awolusi (2013), carried out the effect of motivation on employees’
job commitment. The study was conducted in Lagos State, Nigeria. The data was generated using Spear
man rank order. The findings revealed sufficient evidence to conclude that successful motivational factors
had positive effects on employee job commitment in Nigerian banks, with majority of the respondents
unanimously indicated good salaries and fringe benefit as their best form of motivation, while opportunity
to some form of motivation, while opportunity to some form of ownership and increase responsibility

authority followed in that order In the same vein, Ejumudo (2014), examines reward system and staff
performance in Nigeria. The research was carried out in Delta State, Nigeria. The data collected was
analyzed using simple percentage. The findings of the study indicate that the incongruence of the pay
reward system of the Delta State Civil Service, costs of living and moderation, the ingrained culture of
poor performance and the dysfunctional employee mode of entry have negatively impacted on the
performance of staff
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
The study was conducted in Maiduguri Metropolis of Borno State, Nigeria. Borno state is one of the
thirty-six (36) States in the country (Nigeria). Borno state has three geo-political zones namely Borno
South, Borno Central, and Borno North. One of them is Borno Central within which Maiduguri
Metropolis is located. The city served as nerve center not only for the north-east sub region but also to the
neighboring countries of Niger, Cameroon and Chad. It also shares state boundaries with Gombe and
Yobe states. The population of the study comprises one hundred and seventy two (172) employees of five
(5) selected Commercial Banks (Fidelity Bank Plc, FCMB Plc, FBN Plc, GTBank plc and Zenith Bank
Plc,) in Maiduguri Metropolis, Borno State Nigeria which were conveniently selected. Survey method
was employed to gather the data through structured questionnaire and interview. Data collected were
analyzed with the aid of simple percentage and chi square test of goodness was used manually to test the
research hypothesis.

To obtain the critical or table value of x2, the study adopted degree of freedom at 5% level of significance.
Where;
DF = (R – 1) (C – 1) Where:
R = Number of Rows
C = Number of Columns
That is (4-1) (3-1)

Therefore, the degree of freedom is calculated as six (6), and at 5% (0.05) level of significance, the
critical or table value of x2 is obtained as (12.5916). Thus, critical or table value of x2 is (12.5916) which
is less than the computed value of the chi-square (352.86). Since, the computed value of the chi-square is

greater than the table value of x2 is (352.86 greater than (12.5916), the null hypothesis is not accepted,
while the alternate hypothesis is not rejected. It means that, statistically, there is a strong evidence that
Non-monetary motivation has significance impact on employees performance in some selected
commercial Banks within Maiduguri Metropolis.
FINDINGS, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Non-monetary motivation is an essential instrument that management of Commercial Banks uses to
influence their employees. Similarly, non-monetary motivation has been recognized as a significant tool
for enhancing employee’s performance job in the banking sector in Maiduguri Borno state Nigeria. The
study reveals that recognition has significant impact on punctuality of employee in the study area. Work
autonomy has significant impact on productivity and also appreciation has significant impact on
employee’s dedication to duties and responsibilities in the selected Commercial Banks in study area.
These findings are in agreement with that of Lotta (2012) that non-monetary reward are indeed away of
motivating the banks employee for greater performance and retention. He further stated that, recognition
is all about creating an emotional connection with employees. Similarly, these finding are in line with the
study of Tensen (2012) that found out that non-monetary reward as a tool for motivating employees to
perform more than expectation in the organization because the value of such reward does not erode easily
unlike monetary reword whose effect disappear as soon as the monetary aspect exhausted. The outcomes
are also in agreement with the study of Armstrong (2011) who reveals that non-financial recognition
scheme encourage managers to acknowledge a job well done at the time it was done. Based on the
findings of the study, its concluded that impact of non-monetary motivation assesses in the present study
has significantly contributes to employees performance in the study area. Therefore, recognition has
positive significant impact on employee punctuality and performance in general. It also the concluded that
appreciation is the second highest factor that significantly contributes to employee performance in the
study area. Similarly, it also concluded that work autonomy of employees has significant impact on
employee’s performance. The study recommends that;
a. Management of the Commercial Banks should endeavor to shows the present of fairness in their
recognition as employees are agent who are affected by the non-monetary rewards.
b. Management of the Commercial Banks should ensure that recognition and praise should be offered to
employees to enhance their performance in their unit of the organization.
c. Management of the Commercial Banks should also appreciate the effort of the loyal, committed and
dedicated employees to boost their morale which led to best performance ion the organization.
d. Management of the Commercial Banks should give more emphasizes to Employee’s Autonomy which
lead to increase in their Performance.
